Brian Vickers says Kyle Busch is “out of strikes” when it comes to how they race each other. On Friday at Bristol Motor Speedway, Vickers was expecting to discuss Sunday’s win at Michigan and his new contract with Red Bull Racing. Instead, he was peppered with questions about an argument with Busch following the Nationwide Race. Vickers says “I’m just done,” with Busch, and “he’s out of rope.”
The two were once teammates at Hendrick Motorsports, but have since joined new teams. They argued at the end of last Saturday’s event when they raced each other so hard that Brad Keselowski was able to scoot past on the final lap to steal the Nationwide win.
I can’t believe there are no comments on this article yet.
I started to last night then I gave up and went to bed instead of expending any energy on it… I hope that Vickers isn’t just talking out his a$$ and he’ll actually clock Shrub one of these days. Shrub is an insanely talented driver but I’m to the point of not being able to look past his crappy attitude anymore.
Well this is what we need more of in this sport, guys actually manning up and talking a lil trash. I was bummed last night when Kyle didn’t rip that rookie a new one. Back to Vickers though I like Vickers, but lets be honest we all know he’s talking crap. Let’s look at whats on the line for him, he may miss the chase, and with him being in position to make his first chase I dont see Vickers doing anything stupid that would cost him that spot. Now if he misses the chase then all bets are off. I did think its funny how Vickers approaches Kyle with his helmet on and everyone says how Kyle was scared and blah blah and vickers is the man, yet when Gordon did it to Kenseth everyone was calling gordong a wuss and should of had his helmet off. Also if you the replay i did take Vickers forever to get his helmet off, they both came off the track at the same time and Kyle parked got out and walked over to Vickers car, still no helmet off then they have there discussion still no helmet off, then Kyle walks away and vickers gets out and walks over to kyle and they start discussing again anf Kyle has to open his visor for him. cause vickers had it closed. LOL LOL COME ONE VICKERS, if kyle would have done that to smoke or anyone else that helmet would have been off during the initial discussion. How was vickers thining he was gonna make a point to Kyle yelling through his helmet with his visor down. LOL I love it though this is the way all drivers should be, instead of the corprate puppets they are.
looked to me like he was escorted into the hauler and calmed down and told not to act like the idiot that he usually does. You could tell the was having to think before he spoke by the way his eyes were moving. I think someone has finally told Cryle to stop acting like such a jerk or else.
As for Vickers the reason he didn’t have his helmet off was that unlike Cryle who had his off and was unbuckled before he even blocked Vickers on pit road, Vickers was not expecting it so he had to unhook everything and get out. I’m sure the reason he still had his helmet on was because he was in a hurry to catch Cryle before he could go hide. Lucky for Cryle that NASCAR didn’t take any points away from him over it or he could be out of the points lead. Carma is finally catching up to him and he is getting what he deserves. I wonder how it will get him tonight? I can’t wait to find out.
I dont see Vickers doing anything tonight..why should he but it wouldnt surprise me if the idiot kyle did…
Cryle,
I think what you meant to say was KARMA and not CARMA. As for Vickers not having time to take his helmet off is crazy, plus if I am going to approach someone to prove a point Im going to make sure they can understand, and that yelling through a helmet may hinder me proving my point, especially with the visor down. Why would Nascar take point away he didn’t do anything dangerous or say anything inappropriate on tv. Nascars has said they want these guys to show emotion and thats what these guys are doing.
As for last night, he wasn’t escorted he went in there way before anyone had a chance to get to him they were chasing him in there. Just like Algiers wasn’t interviewed as soon as he wrecked he had time to calm down, which all drivers deserve before a microphone is shoved in there face.
CRYLE,
Looks like KARMA worked out pretty well for Kyle last night. All on the way to breaking another record of having the most wins under 25 years old. Breaking records all along the way.
[quote comment="56072"]Cryle,

I Guess the fact that I miss-spelled a word makes My remarks null and void
if you want this to be a spelling bee then so be it but I thought this was a racing blog and debate site. You choose, I’ll play. As for Cryles win yes he ran a good clean race and deserved that win I’ll give him that but he is lucky that it was Martin under him at the end cause 99% of the rest of the field would have taken him out. Ant he would of taken Martin out if the roles were reversed. Also if it were not for that last caution then Martin would have won it. And Cryle would be crying about another 2nd. place finish.
2 more races and -34 points! See ya next weekend!
Well Cryle
It’s not that fact that you misspelled its the fact you thought you spelled it right. Either Kyle didn’t move anyone all night, and there was alot of other people doing it and they werent even going for a win. Also last year when Edwards moved Kyle everyone said it was ok, and it was racing, so to criticize Kyle for what he “may” done is stupid. Specially after Edwards did last year and it was ok, so to say Kyle would have done the same and not be ok, is ridiculous. Also to say if it wasnt for the last caution is stupid cause on the restart with 14 to go Kyle got a huge jump on mark, and mark with 9 laps to go when the 55 brought out the caution mark was 3 car lengths behind and having to fight off biffle. So that last restart helped mark cause he was able to get a better restart and stay closer to Kyle.

You set behind your keyboard and talk crap about JR. all the time just to get a rise out of his fans but when someone speaks there mind about Cryle you resort to name calling. I ans you call me stupid, lmao.

Also I dont see were I Criticized Cryle all I did was point out his M. O. for if he would have been in Martins position.
His M.O. and what is his M.O..
His M.O. is that he can wheel a racecar. How many times has he finished 2nd in the Nationwide series and not wrecked anyone. This M.O. is more useless propaganda made up by Jr nation.

And this was all you could respond to, ok
His M.O is what everyone has seen out of him in the past few years, Wreck to win. Sad thing is most of those times he didn’t even have to do that cause his car was fast enough to pass for the lead if he would have been patient
Pleas tell me all these people he has wrecked to win. The only one I can recall is Jr at Richmond, and that wasn’t intentional, Kyles car got loose under jr, if it was intentional Kyle would have won and not Bowyer. Anyway since his M.O. is that he wrecks for the win thre is obvioulsy a long list of times this has happened so please give me some examples. Like I said this M.O. is “BS” just nonsense made up by JR “CRYBABY” nation because Kyle took Jr out of that one possible win at Richmond. Ever since all JR nation has said is that he is reckless. So since there is a plethora of time Kyles has dumped the leader for a win let me know, since you have 12 different options to look at over the last 2 years, Im sure you can find plenty to justify your statements.

It’s because he’s wreckless and has no respect….I can see why he’s always upset and crying look at the picture of him on this story I’m sure every time he looks in the mirror it anger’s him lol If I looked like that I’d be angry too
LEE,
Thank you for that statement you proved my point. You have NO examples and since you obviously can not prove your point with examples. Then when you realize you have no leg to stand on you redirect to joking his looks. Sorry but I dont like a driver cause of the way he looks, you may but I dont. Like I said shoe me some examples of our point.
For example when I joke JR for his pit sop troubles, starting with Daytona and then Las Vegas and so, to prove my point. So show me how many times kyle has recked someone else for the win, like i said you have 12 mins over the last 2 years for possible examples.

Look Rowdy I’m not gonna waste my time or yours listing drivers that cryle has dumped over the last few years, and I was talking in all 3 NASCAR series BTW (now I’m sure your gonna say something like I didn’t name any cause I cant ) Come on you know as well as I do cryles driving style, heck you have even bragged about how you like his “Win at all cost” style but if you wanna act like you don’t see it so be it!
AS for your statement about JR. Nation is to blame for all the bad things that get said about cryle, go set in the stands (and take off your blinders) and see who all’s fans cheer when cryle has a problem. It’s far more then just JR’s fans. Right now there are 2 type of NASCAR fan’s the cryle lovers and the cryle haters there are very few in the middle or at least at the races I have been to
BTW why did you try to give Lee crap about not giving examples, I was the one that said it so lee’s remarks proved nothing on your point but nice try.
Cryle,
Like I said if there are plenty of examples then you would have plenty to talk about. The bottom line is you cant even think of one. As for Jr nation the majority of people who dislike Kyle is Jr nation, and as for the stands as Howie says Jr is having souvenir trailers removed Kyle is having more added, so that speaks for itself. As for Lee I was just curious why would a fan of a sport the revolves around dirving, mock someone on the way they look. If thats what you judge a driver on, maybe you should you watch “THE VIEW” and not Nascar. Bottom line is Kyle has over 20 races between Cup and Nationwide that he has won, that you could provide plenty of examples of your accusation.

LOL your so predictable, unless you don’t really watch the races you know cryles style and I’m leaving it at that. Again you must not go to any races, at the 400 at Daytona, everyone that I could see was cheering about Cryle Dumping himself. and when he got out of the car, walked away and argued with the safety workers about getting in the ambulance, Fans of almost every driver were laughing and making fun of him. As for using Howie as proof of cryles popularity, I cant say what Howie see’s (or when he said that for that matter) But at Michigan there was just as many JR. trailers as ever and they were as busy as ever. So once again nice try.
AS for rour comment to lee it wasn’t that you were curious, you tryed to you tryed to prove your point against by using his comment

All Lee did was speak his mind on cryles looks and you tried to make it sound like he said things that he didn’t But yet you bring up JR’s speech all the time. But if someone say’s something about cryles looks then you say they shouldn’t be watching NASCAR but the view instead.
I love Kyle have watched him grow up he is the best and will be at the top a lot sooner than Vickers. Vickers is always taking shots at some one well he picked the wrong guy here . Kyle is a smart driver but he will explode if he is pushed. I met Kyle back in Vegas he was a kid nivest kid you could ever meet. I met him again Sunday at the Fairground Speedway in Nashville and he is still that good nice kid. He gets bad press for speaking his mind just like dale sr. did. It doesn’t bother him it only fuel’s the fire. He is a great kid and he will end up on top soon . love you Kyle Your the best and you know that!!
Like I said, if you could prove your point you would do it with facts. All you do is say nobody watches races or what other people say, or whatever other fans say, or who they were making fun of. What are you in elementary school and trying to fit in. Give me a break, bottom line is you cant prove your point he does wreck anyone to win. What he does is drive the wheels off the car, he holds nothing back and does whatever it takes to win.

You just proved the point dummy think before you type…”he holds nothing back and does whatever it takes to win”
Yes Lee, I understand Jr nation is full of SIMPLETONS so let me make this very easy for you to understand. He drives the wheels off his car and he pushes the car and himself as far as he can go. Thats what all drivers do, or should I say suppose to do. Some driver just ride around and will settle for a top 20, not him he wants to win every race. Like I said before I said before if Kyle was constantly wrecking people as you and the other haters say, then you would have plenty of examples, he has one plenty of races in all 3 series of the last 2 seasons alone, there should be plenty of examples to prove your point. Also if he was so reckless how come Nascar has said or done anything. SO like I said before, this is just JR CRYBABY, nation hating on Kyle cause for one cause of the incident with Jr last year, and number 2 because he can flat out drive and out perform jr nations beloved driver.

I see now you again resort to personal attacks against me, First I was stupid and now I’m a child. lol What ever my friend, You know how he is and that’s why you resort to calling names hoping I’ll stop posting comments about cryle. BTW you seem to think I am a JR. fan , well I do think he is a good driver and great for NASCAR but I am a Martin Fan and if cryle was 1% of the class act as Mark then I wouldn’t hate him. It’s funny how the cryle lovers always bring up JR and his fans when ever anyone says something they don’t like about cryle.

You’re the one bringing up JR…this story has nothing to do with JR you must have a man crush on him every time you post you bring up his name regardless if the story is about him or not.as for kyle he has a habit of wrecking people in all 3 series but keep living in denial he’s wrecked countless drivers if its for the win or not.

And you call people SIMPLETONS….LOL try reading your own posts half the stuff you post makes no sense like whats”like I said before I said before” the booze has fried your brain cells or the pipe or both…
Cryle,
Not sure what was the idea I was attacking you, if it was for me asking you if you were in elementary school that wasn’t an attack it was a reference. I’ll tell you this I have met Mark several times and he was a jerk half the times I met him. With that said I understand these guys probably would like a little privacy, but dont be fooled by some drivers on air persona compared to there real life persona. Im not saying Martin is bad guy or a jerk, but I am saying just because you see a guy act a certain way in front of the camera, they could be a complete different person off camera. Kyle just happens to be someone who wears his emotions on his sleeve and he says what he feels. I like that, Sorda like Biffle said about Martin, you know what he is gonna say every time hes in front of the camera its the same thing. Is that bad no not at all thats the way he prefers to do it, so why does everyone have to cry about Kyle speaking his mind. After all it is the United States and our boys are over seas fighting, for our freedom so who cares when a guy speaks his mind. We should remind ourselves we are lucky to even be in a situation where someone is allowed to do that.
Lee,
You say countless time the I say there are plenty of examples you could provide. Yet you have not offered “1″ just “1″ example. Kyle was only on peoples radar last year for winning races and doing awesome in his new ride, until Richmond when he and Jr got together. From that point on Jr nation started the Kyle bashing. It amuses me when people say Martin should have moved Kyle for the win, or people say what Edwards did to Kyle last year was racing, or when Jimmy moved Jeff last year it was racing, but when Kyle does it he’s reckless. It’s a double standard and the leaders of this is JR NATION who are just disappointed in there drivers lack of performance.
Cryle,
One last point, being a Smoke fan as much as I am a Kyle fan. I recall Smoke first championship arguing with people who said he was reckless and he was no good and overall he was a jerk. This went on for awhile, Smoke had no issue turning someone who he thought was racing him wrong. I also remember when he said they have streets named after people like Biffle and it’s “ONE WAY” or even when him and newman had been involved in a on track incident where Smoke was wrong and he said he forgot “he had to race cry babies like newman and Johnson easier then other guys” These are jsut some of the examples that i can remember. SO does this make Smoke a bad guy nope not at all. During that he was one of the leading in money donations to Victory Junction, which nobody spoke of, all they spoke of was how mean he was adn how reckless he was. Well look how things have changed, everyone loves smoke now. Personally I like the old smoke better, but it is nice to see him enjoying racing more and not always in the middle of some controversy either shoving a reporter or saying something he shouldnt, or doing something he shouldnt have. After all how many times was Smoke on probabtion in the past years by nascar and even Home Depot. Now look at him.
